Support the ELLEN AND JOE CHECOTA MATC SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
TRIPLE YOUR DONOR INVESTMENT AND BUILD THE TALENT PIPELINE
Ellen and Joe Checota have formed a multimillion-dollar partnership with MATC to create a new scholarship to accelerate the time to enter or advance in trade and technical careers. The Checota MATC Scholarship Program will offer full-ride scholarships in 90+ technical diploma and certificate programs (see list of programs below).
A $5 million gift from Ellen and Joe Checota is contingent on gaining matching gifts from other donors. Every dollar contributed will have a two-for-one match, up to $2.5 million. When fully funded, the $7.5 million fund will represent the largest charitable gift in the 110-year history of MATC.
This new scholarship program is the most comprehensive scholarship at MATC, designed as a last-dollar scholarship to cover the gap between a student’'s financial aid grants and the cost of tuition, books, supplies, equipment, meals, transportation, child care, and more for eligible students. (The large majority of MATC scholarships cover only tuition costs.)
